Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,
The W3C WAI announces a Call for Review of updates to two supporting documents for Web Content Accessibility Guideline (WCAG) 2.0. *This is not an update to WCAG 2.0, which is a stable document*. The supporting documents (W3C Working Group Notes) are updated periodically to reflect current practices and technologies. The existing Techniques and Understanding documents remain in place as W3C Notes while the separate draft updates are under review and the WCAG Working Group addresses comments.
The following draft updates are available for review as Editors' Drafts:
- Techniques for WCAG 2.0 Editors' Draft http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2014/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20140724/
- Understanding WCAG 2.0 Editors' Draft http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2014/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140724/
The changes are highlighted in diff-marked versions at:
- http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2014/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20140724/complete-diff.html
- http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2014/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140724/complete-diff.html
Please send any comments on these Editors' Drafts by *12 August 2014*. Comments and contributions for additional WCAG 2.0 techniques can be sent via web form or e-mail, per:
- Instructions for Commenting on WCAG 2.0 Documents http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/comments/
If you are interested in actively contributing to the development of additional WCAG 2.0 techniques and support material through the WCAG Working Group, please see: Participating in WAI <http://www.w3.org/WAI/participation> and contact Michael Cooper.
For an introduction to the WCAG documents, see:

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you in advance for your comments.
Feel free to circulate this message to other lists; please avoid cross-postings where possible.
